2:00 pm on January 26, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Jacob Movtady, doing business as an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for an eight-story, 18-unit residential building at 263 Franklin Avenue, in western Bedford-Stuyvesant, located two blocks from the Bedford – Nostrand Avs. stop on the G train. The entire project will measure 16,493 square feet and 11,284 square feet of that will be residential space. That means units will average a rental-sized 627 square feet apiece. The residential lobby and recreational space will be located on the ground floor and retail space will occupy the cellar. Floral Park-based Sion Consulting Engineering is the applicant of record. The 40-foot-wide lot is currently vacant.

New Renderings, Details For Multi-Building, 223-Unit Residential Conversion Of Cabrini Medical Center, Gramercy

1:00 pm on January 26, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In early 2015, YIMBY revealed renderings of the multi-building, 223-unit residential conversion of the former Cabrini Medical Center, located in Gramercy on the block bound by Second and Third Avenues and East 19th and 20th Streets. Now, Curbed NY has the latest details and renderings of the project, dubbed Gramercy Square, which include slight modifications to the exterior and slightly different unit counts. At 215 East 19th Street, the main 16-story hospital building will get a new façade and will get 130 condominiums, down from 140. The building at 225 East 19th Street will be transformed into 48 residential units, down from 54. The new-construction building at 220 East 20th Street will have eight full-floor units, and the last property at 230 East 20th Street will be converted into 37 units. The entire development will have 12,000 square feet of amenity space. Chetrit Group, Clipper Equity, and Real Property Group are developing, and Woods Bagot is designing.

Five-Story, Five-Unit Residential Conversion Planned At 25 Mercer Street, SoHo

11:00 am on January 26, 2016 By Reid Wilson

The five-story mixed-use building at 25 Mercer Street and the three-story property at 27 Mercer Street, located in the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District, are expected to be converted into a single five-unit condominium building, according to Curbed NY. There will be four full-floor units and a duplex penthouse, and the residences are expected to hit the market this spring. GDS Development is developing and Fogarty Finger is designing the project, dubbed 25 Mercer. Alterations that would go into the conversion would have to be approved by the Landmarks Preservation Commission since the property is located within a historic district.

Local Politicians Spearhead Request by 26th Floor Resident Of The Sovereign for 250-Foot Height Limit in Vicinity

8:00 am on January 26, 2016 By Nikolai Fedak

On Friday, Crain’s reported on a rezoning proposal to downzone Sutton Place and institute a 260-foot height limit on new developments in the area. What wasn’t reported was the real cause behind this not-so-arbitrary figure: the leader of the East River Fifties Alliance, Alan Kersh, happens to live on the 26th floor of The Sovereign, which at 47 stories tall, is almost double the height limit its residents want to force on new buildings in the blocks to the south.

7:00 am on January 26, 2016 By Rebecca Baird-Remba

When we last checked in with 21 West End Avenue back in 2014, only a few stories of the 43-story tower had risen above street level. Now, Dermot Company is putting the finishing touches on the 529-foot-tall building between West 60th and 61st streets, and YIMBY reader Tectonic swung by for a construction update.

Landmarks Not Ready To Approve New Three-Family House At 348 Clermont Avenue, Fort Greene

7:00 am on January 26, 2016 By Evan Bindelglass

A new residential building is probably coming to a vacant lot on Clermont Avenue, between Lafayette and Green avenues, in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene Historic District. It just won’t be quite what was proposed to the Landmarks Preservation Commission on last Tuesday. The commission did not approve the plan for a three-family, four-story structure at its public hearing.

Permits Filed: 446 Park Avenue, Bed-Stuy

6:30 am on January 26, 2016 By Rebecca Baird-Remba

Park Avenue in Brooklyn begins underneath the elevated, dark Brooklyn-Queens Expressway in Clinton Hill and runs east into Bed-Stuy, where it transitions into an odd mix of warehouses, little brick apartment buildings, and aging 19th century wood frame houses. Much of the avenue was originally developed for workers at the Navy Yard, which sits a block away, but Orthodox Jews have settled the area over the last few decades. And now, even the once-desolate industrial blocks just east of the highway are becoming populated with new residential buildings. Yesterday, applications were filed for a five-story building there at 446 Park Avenue, between Kent and Franklin Avenues.

Reveal For Six-Story, 71-Unit Mixed-Use Building At 165 Huguenot Street, New Rochelle

3:00 pm on January 25, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Last October, YIMBY brought you news that Anup Misra, head of East & Hudson Real Estate, is developing a six-story, 71-unit mixed-use building at 165 Huguenot Street, in downtown New Rochelle. Now, the Daily Voice has a rendering of the project, dubbed the Print House. The 64,000- square-foot building will feature studio, one-, and two-bedroom rental apartments, measuring between 500 and 975 square feet apiece. There will also be 3,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The New Rochelle Industrial Development Agency recently approved a 12-year Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) structure for the project, which is a tax incentive. An existing two-story commercial building must first be demolished. Construction is expected to begin this spring, with completion scheduled in 2017. Magnusson Architecture & Planning is behind the design.

Request For Proposals Released For Mixed-Use Development Site At 2870 Webster Avenue, Bedford Park

2:00 pm on January 25, 2016 By Reid Wilson

The New York Botanical Garden has released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a mixed-use development assemblage at 2856-2870 Webster Avenue and 412 Bedford Park Boulevard, in Bedford Park. According to Curbed NY, the site could accommodate roughly 300 residential units, in addition to a 125-plus-key hotel and at least 12,000 square feet of retail. The site is located right above the Metro-North Railroad’s Botanical Garden station and currently consists of multiple low-rise commercial buildings. Proposal submissions are due on March 1, and the Garden is hoping to choose a developer before April.

Four Two-Story, Two-Unit Residential Buildings Filed At 221 Conklin Avenue, Canarsie

1:00 pm on January 25, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Sam Manshari, head of a Fresh Meadows-based anonymous LLC, has filed applications for four two-story, two-unit residential buildings at 1068-1070 East 98th Street and 217-221 Conklin Avenue, in Canarsie, located a block south of the Canarsie – Rockaway Parkway stop on the L train. The two buildings on East 98th Street will have 1,887 square feet of residential space each, which means full-floor units at those addresses will average 944 square feet apiece. On Conklin Avenue, the buildings will each measure 2,740 square feet, so full-floor units there will average 1,370 square feet apiece. Queens-based Gerald Caliendo is the architect of record. The L-shaped property assemblage is currently vacant.
